Jamie Lee Curtis even getting nominated was fucking insane to me, let alone winning. She gave the most forgettable, nothing performance in the few scenes she was even in
this was the worst night of my life

The Replacement's 'Tim' is as powerful an evocation of working class life as any by Springsteen or Pulp. Resentment and joy dwell in nearly every detail: bus route-courtships, scared-but-stalwart-single-mothers and the watering holes where every night dreams both blossom and die.

Mom just texted me pissed about them taking Digger out of theaters. She says they should give it another week for the “Neil Young bump”
Neil Young says Tom Cruise's "Digger" is "the best film I have ever seen." "None of the reviews I have read describe this film adequately, in my opinion," Young wrote. "They seem to miss the overall effect and most of them are negative. This film lives in a world of art. It is its own best review. Don't read any other reviews and forget this one before you see 'Digger.' It cannot be seen as a Tom Cruise film - that would be misleading. I would describe it as a film of our times... I do not view this film as a commercial venture. Rather it is an artful film of our times. The things that are said in 'Digger' are a direct reflection of today's political and social world. The film is so full of artful expression and radical change ups, that it may be too much to take in for those expecting a commercial film like we are used to today." wp.me/pc8uak-1lHXy0

I learned about the Holocaust and I was like, that's bad. Then I learned about the Civil Rights Movement and I was like, that's good.
How are any young men left wing I genuinely don’t understand

This is not "keeping politics out of music." If he wanted to do that he just would have played the show and not said anything. This is a political message designed to suppress a certain kind of speech he disagrees with.
Metallica frontman James Hetfield recently called out artists who turn their concerts into political rallies, saying: “Metallica is not here, like some other entertainers, to influence you with their BULLSH*T.” Do you agree with James? Should musicians keep politics out of concerts, or should artists use the stage to speak about what they believe in? Let’s debate. What do you think? #Metallica #JamesHetfield #HeavyMetal #Metal #ThisDayInMetal

Finally saw Digger and, not only was it phenomenal, I have no clue what on earth the critics who didn’t like it were on

“I love a hedgehog but there is a time and a place for them” is unfortunatley instant canon
I love a hedgehog but there is a time and a place for them. We are not nursery children - please can we have inspirational people from the past who have contributed to our country back on our bank notes please @bankofengland. Let’s be proud of our history and recognise it on our legal tender.

If this guy's deranged old man had not left him a trust fund worth £300 million plus non-dom tax status, he would just be a common or garden two-bit racist bore in the pub. Instead, he is the worst kind of trustafarian over-entitled racist prick.
Desperately clinging to his position, desperately hoping not to offend the Islamists and far left wackos. But it’s too late. He will be gobbled up and spat out. His legacy nothing more than a skid mark on British politics.

Reading a book in public is only performative to people that don’t read books. To a reader, every waiting room, park bench, train carriage, airport gate, and café table is another potential chapter.
People that read books on the train are lowkey kinda performative 😭

I adored Digger, but I wouldn't mind reading any criticism against it that isn't just "it was BAD!!!!"

Don't Look Up deserved it's slating. Lazy satire. Digger is in a totally different artistic & intellectual league
I’m obsessed with this film. It’s fascinating that the media hated this and the other big film about climate change and how our culture is destroying us, Dont Look up, which tells you everything you need to know.

the entire timeline making it look like diggermania is overtaking the country while knowing that all of it is illusory and won’t meaningfully change the dismal box office returns:
